Cirque, Reimagined: A Statement Chandelier Designed for Greater Customization
Some lighting fixtures illuminate a room. Others define it.
The Cirque chandelier by Hammerton Signature has long been known for its sculptural presence—an elegant ring of cast crystal glass that captures and refracts light with quiet drama. Now, Hammerton has redesigned this iconic fixture to make it more versatile, more customizable, and easier to integrate into today’s most sophisticated interiors.
The result is an eye-catching statement chandelier that offers designers and homeowners greater creative freedom while maintaining the artistry that defines Hammerton.
A More Flexible Design for luxurious Spaces
The most significant update to the Cirque fixture is the addition of precision-engineered wedge links between each cast crystal glass element.
These subtle structural connections dramatically expand the fixture’s design potential. With the addition of wedge links, Cirque can now be configured in a wider range of sizes, shapes, and forms, allowing it to better adapt to the architecture of the space.
Cirque can now be tailored to suit everything from a refined two-tier oval chandelier to more elongated or layered configurations that emphasize vertical volume. It can also be specified across multiple fixture types—including wall sconces, multi-pendant installations, linear chandeliers, and flush mounts—allowing the design to be applied throughout the home while maintaining a cohesive visual language.
In short, this customizable statement chandelier can now be designed to fit the architecture—not the other way around.
Inspired by the ART of Fine Jewelry
Beyond its structural redesign, Cirque continues to celebrate the artistry that has made it a standout within the Hammerton Signature collection.
The fixture subtly nods to the timeless craft of luxury jewelry design. Each cast crystal glass lens is created by pouring molten glass over tiny crystalline pieces of frit, forming a luminous surface that sparkles and refracts light from every angle.
As light moves across the fixture, the crystal elements reveal layers of depth and brilliance, creating a sense of movement and refinement within the space. The result is a statement chandelier that feels both sculptural and delicate—equally suited for interiors that range from modern opulence to transitional elegance.
Expanded Finish Options: Greater Cohesion
The redesigned Cirque is now available in 14 Hammerton Studio finishes, significantly expanding its versatility across interior design styles.
This expanded palette allows designers to align Cirque with a wide range of interiors—from contemporary and transitional homes to more architectural or classic environments. More importantly, it enables a cohesive lighting story throughout the home.
Because Cirque now shares the same finishes as Hammerton Studio fixtures, designers can pair this Signature statement piece with coordinating pendants, sconces, and smaller decorative lighting across other spaces.
The result is a layered lighting plan that feels intentional and unified from room to room.
A Statement chandelier That Anchors the Space
In large custom homes, lighting often needs to do more than provide illumination. It needs to create visual structure.
Cirque excels in spaces where scale matters—grand foyers, dining rooms, and great rooms with soaring ceilings. The rhythm of cast crystal glass elements creates a luminous ring that adds both architectural presence and sculptural elegance.
When illuminated, the fixture becomes a focal point that draws the eye upward while adding dimension and movement to the room.
An Iconic Design, Evolved
Great lighting is about proportion, balance, and the relationship between form and architecture.
The redesigned Cirque chandelier reflects Hammerton’s commitment to evolving its most iconic designs to meet the needs of modern designers, builders, and homeowners. With expanded customization, a broader finish palette, and improved design flexibility, Cirque is now easier than ever to specify as the defining lighting feature within a thoughtfully layered interior.
Because when a fixture becomes the focal point of a space, it should be designed with the same level of intention as the architecture itself.
